We prove that solutions to the Monge‐Ampère inequalitydet D 2 u ≥ 1in ℝ n are strictly convex away from a singular set of Hausdorff ( n ‐1)‐dimensional measure zero. Furthermore, we show this is optimal by constructing solutions to det D 2 u = 1 with singular set of Hausdorff dimension as close as we like to n ‐1. As a consequence we obtain W 2,1 regularity for the Monge‐Ampère equation with bounded right‐hand side and unique continuation for the Monge‐Ampère equation with sufficiently regular right‐hand side. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
